Sunday 15th September - All 24 seen

I came across yearling 270 and Sussex steer 1626 near ///stirs.inkjet.toned at 09:20 this morning. They were both gazing out over the pasture to the north, watching their herd mates graze in the thicket before making their way down to join them.

At 09:30, cow 1396 was happily grazing near ///pint.blotches.oldest, while cow 212 and steer 1640 lay in the bracken behind her. Cow 211 was resting further northeast along the track. They all looked well.

By 09:45, the first two steers had joined steers 30 and 219 to graze in the thicket. Nearby, cows 72 and 940, along with steers 21 and 220, were grazing near ///masks.feels.towels. They were all happy and relaxed.

Just before 10:00, I heard frequent mooing in the distance. After climbing the hill, I found Sussex steers 197 and 210 standing in the pasture to the northeast of James Bond pond. They had become separated from the others. With their calls going unanswered, I walked them along to reunite with the other four Sussex cattle. They seemed happy to be back with the group and appeared to come over to thank me.

Steers 33, 35, 217, 222, 227, 228, 230 and 271, along with cows 214 and 234, were spread out grazing near ///bunch.clinic.sailor at 10:10. They were enjoying the long grass, heather, and leaves from the bushes. Despite the swampy ground, hills, and dense bracken, the cows navigated the terrain effortlessly. Steers 227 and 230 took a break to enjoy some back rubs.

The cows were all good today.
